[Gustafer Yellowgold; Yoga in the Park; Bassic Four-Year Anniversary]

FRIDAY

Robin Trower: Back in the 70s, this British blues rocker had a defining guitar moment during a Jimi Hendrix concert. He used that ethereal Hendrix sound to create his own style of expression and was referred to by the press as "The White Hendrix." Trower is on tour to support his new CD, "The Playful Heart." 8 p.m. $37-$57. The Wilbur Theatre, 246 Tremont St., Boston. 800-745-3000. thewilbur.com

Bassic's Four-Year Anniversary: Shine those shoes or don a bowtie and tails for this fancy fete — just make sure you can move. Resident DJs Damian, C Dubs, Scotch1, and Grizzly (minus Panda'ia and Steppo) will keep the joint jumping with their signature blend of dubstep and bass-heavy tunes. And be sure to get your paws on the limited edition anniversary T-shirt. 9:30 p.m. Tickets: $5, free if you dress up. 21+. Good Life. 617-451-2622, goodlifebar.com

'Burn This' reading: Jeffrey Donovan stars in USA Network's series "Burn Notice," and he'll star in the Commonwealth Shakespeare Company's reading of Lanford Wilson's play. The performance, directed by Steven Maler, wraps up the company's American Voices series. Donovan is known to CSC audiences for his 2005 portrayal of Hamlet, and will be featured as Robert Kennedy in Clint Eastwood's upcoming "J. Edgar," due out in 2012. 8 p.m. Free, but space is limited. Boston Center for the Arts, Wimberly Theatre, 527 Tremont St., Boston. commshakes.org

Jo Koy: We give this comedian the thumbs up for acknowledging his mom's contribution to his success. She encouraged his childhood endeavors in talent shows and performances for family and friends. The love paid off. Koy is now a hot comic with appearances on Jay Leno and Comedy Central and a regular gig on "Chelsea Lately." 7 p.m. $27. Wilbur Theatre, 246 Tremont St., Boston. 800-745-3000, thewilbur.com

SomerFun Fest: We're curious about the dunk tank with local celebrities, one piece of the festival pie. The other slices at this street festival include carnival games, a mixed-breed dog show, scavenger hunt, farm and food demos, and live entertainment. 3-7 p.m. (Rain date June 12). Free. Union Square, Somerville. 617-625-6600, ext. 2985. somervilleartscouncil.org

Epic-Terrestrial: Miami-bred producer and DJ Abel got his start in South Beach and has worked with Donna Summer and Cher — the spinster brings his Latin flavor and house beats to the House of Blues Saturday night for the main event of Boston Pride at Night. 10 p.m. Tickets: $40, $30 in advance. 21+. House of Blues. 888-693–2583, chrisharrispresents.com

DeCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, 51 Sandy Pond Road, Lincoln. 781-259-8355. decordova.org

Gustafer Yellowgold: He's just a little yellow cone-headed guy from the sun trying to get along in the Minnesota woods. The creation of illustrator/songwriter Morgan Taylor, Yellowgold beams down in the Boston area with a new multimedia show to celebrate summer. Adults like him, too — in addition to regular rounds on the children's music circuit, he's performed as a supporting act for Wilco and The Polyphonic Spree. 2 p.m. $10, $8 kids and seniors. Regent Theatre, 7 Medford St., Arlington. 781-646-4849, regenttheatre.com
